My cPanel page was misconfigured with CloudFlare and had a strange IP on ‘Last Login From’

First thoughts was about cPanel had performed a bad update to cPanel from my hosting company (we always try to put the problems on the others), but then I’v logged in in a different account, in this case with no CloudFlare and I’v realised that the issue was caused by CloudFlare.

This was the screen that I saw, and note to that strange IP on the Last Login From, 108.162.229.123, that belongs to CloudFlare.

So, easily to pass-trought this problem, the best/fast solution is to do directly to the cpanel using the subdomain that allows you to access your server directly without passing through the CloudFlare network, in this case is the default – direct –

Before find the solution, sent a ticket to CloudFlare, this was their answer to me.

Hello. thank you for contacting CloudFlare!

Unless you have mod_cloudflare installed, visitor IPs will appear to be CloudFlare IPs.
